Not sure if any single part of academia felt more like a weird cheat code than Interlibrary Loan. Like, I just say a book I want, basically any book, and this crack team of experts just *get it*????

I bought a book for Nephew B from Bookshop.org today and with the free shipping it was less than it would have cost on Amazon.

So my plans have changed last minute. Anyone want to come hang out at a very nice time share suite and do crafts and cooking with me for a week starting 12/7/25 in North Conway, NH? No? That's OK. More room for me to have more "crafting stations" I guess. Like an intensive crafting sampler retreat.

I think I'm going to need prescription shower goggles for when I (try to) shave my legs in the shower. I thought I did a good job, but the missed patches weren't revealed until after I got out and put my glasses on.

Sigh

Just submitted my first P4A Nerdfighter Art application!

It's basically a crochet and felt Pizza John! (Note: I have just started the prototype, so the attached photo doesn't yet have the face. Face will be oriented with the top of the head near the crust border.)

Hey. The fragmentation of the social media landscape has been hard on indie #scicomm 🧪 projects

Pretty please, @gastronauts.bsky.social ?? I will pay good money for a cookbook from every season, even if there are 15 seasons (and therefore 15 individuals cookbooks) or more!
I say again: @gastronauts.bsky.social cookbook when‽‽‽ On Cameron’s challenge right now and I swear all three of these meals were made specifically for me

"Nothing tastes as good as thin feels," except feeling thankful that being fat means I can still get my Covid vax.

Take your pick, Bobby. I can be thin, miserable, and prematurely dead of Covid, or fat, happy, and Covid-vaxed, dying well-fed with chocolate frosting on my lips at my predestined hour

Ahh..a blissfully cool night at last! Time to sleep with the windows wide open! (However, the cacophony of the dueling tree frogs and the olfactory assault of a recently peeved skunk have me reconsidering this action.)

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧵you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.

Lots of good lessons from yesterday's election but I think one of the top best lessons is ranked choice voting enables systematic change. We need it everywhere. Ranked choice at the local, state, and federal levels. Ranked choice in post offices and cafeterias. Ranked choice on supermarket shelves

The House votes on this THIS AFTERNOON. Call all 3 of your members of Congress, but prioritize your Representative if you only have time for one call before then. Remind them how important (and politically popular) PEPFAR is!
Would you spend $20 to save a human life? What about $20 to save thousands of lives? What if I told you that if you pay US taxes, you already *have* paid this $20, but Trump doesn’t want it to be spent saving lives?

That’s exactly what’s happening with these rescissions: youtu.be/oJW2iES4oPw?...
